I think this has been suggested before, but could we get "spoiler tags" which can be used in Entertainment (and i guess other sections when called for) that would black out text unless it was highlighted?

[spoiler]something like this?[/spoiler]


probably wouldn't even need a "button" as people who post spoilers will probably catch on pretty quick.

I wouldn't think this would require a whole lot of extra coding on anyone's part, right?

Site3 will automatically suspend users that post spoilers.

^^ha so it's a pretty popular idea then.

TWW already has spoiler tags. It's called buy premie and use HTML. Support the site you freeloaders.

^Spoiler tags are not for the benefit of those who are using them... they are for the benefit of the users who might accidentally read a spoiler.

sounds like a good idea

Glen gets bitten in the leg, then is killed by a group that eats him, then they become zombies.

[spoiler]the issue is people posting things that happen later in source material, not episodes that have happened.[/spoiler]

the entire internet will be censored soon enough.

The problem with that is that a lot of our threads evolve from discussion of trailers, participants, and theories to discussions of the movie/book/show in post. Sure, you could say, "Don't enter the thread after the debut unless you've witnessed it," but I don't think this holds true for titles pulled from another source (e.g. The Walking Dead, The Harry Potter series) or when people post things prior to the debut, info pulled from gossip sites/leaks/etc..

In short, I'm with Smath.
